The Salep and The Orchid

Episode:1x30'

Synopsis:

Turkey is one of the richest countrries on middle zone orchids species. There are approximately 160 species of orchids in Turkey. There is a serious decrease both in orchid population and number of species every passing year. Furthermore,somespecies are close to extinction. The main reason for that is that people pick the tubers of many species to produce salep. Salep is our traditional drink which we prefer to drink during the cold winter days in Turkey. Besides, this salep flour is one of the ingredients of the ice cream. Especially in traditional ice cream production it is used as a thickener substance.
